In a computer system having online display or workstations, a keyword table is appended to an online document that allows the users to find keywords that are contained in the document. The keyword table contains synonyms that take the user to the same description. For example, Adjust, Adjusting, Paragraphs, Pagination, Paginating, etc. , would all take the user to the same online information. A HELP TAG is inserted into the document by keying '. help(ADJUST)' into the document. A table is generated that has the keyword in it and the page and line number where that keyword exists. This table is generated at document resolution time when resolution and pagination is performed. The Online Help Facility is then programmed to go to the page and line number when the keyword was requested.

This article reports on the design and use of a computer system to aid bibliographic database searchers in the post-search, analysis phase of their work. The major task addressed is the determination of relevance of downloaded abstracts. Aids for the individual review of abstracts and for the automatic determination of relevance are described. The system, called SORT-AID, runs on a personal computer and is in use at several NASA technology transfer installations.

The importance of virtual memory management (VMM) and its advantages are considered, including various issues in the context of the design/understanding of operating systems for microcomputers. One of the issues, namely, the table fragmentation, is explained and some approaches to handling it are summarized.

A computer program is considered, processing one sequential tape file and other files in a multiprogramming environment. A formula for the optimal blocking factor (minimal processing cost) of the sequential tape file is derived. All variables are reduced to standard accounting information such as CPU-time, elapsed time and number of file accesses. Finally, a case study is used to show the way of measuring the program and calculating the optimal blocking factor.

This paper describes the design method for a communication control program composed of highly reusable routine modules, as well as a method for managing their routine modules using a database management system. Experimental results show that adopting these methods assures improved productivity and communication control program quality.

Disclosed is an easy-to-use method of creating document templates in a manner identical to creating a non-template document. Document templates are standard document forms for a given class of documents, such as memo, business letter, informal letter, newsletter, etc. Conventional editors either do not provide templates or provide a fixed number of templates with a need for special skills to add new templates. It is therefore desirable that any user of an editor could make his own templates without learning any special skills in a manner identical to creating a document which is not a template. The present approach is to (1) have a template document be the same as any other document except for having a special name and (2) derive from the editor invocation which template document to use when creating a new document.

As program structures for programmable control systems become more complex, adequate and clear documentation becomes more important. Using an external storage medium or a computer, e. g. a personal computer, with access to the information in the automation program, it is possible to generate a large section of the documentation off-line.
